La Habra Meals on Wheels, Inc. is a nonprofit, volunteer community service providing home delivered meals since 1974 for anyone unable to prepare or obtain adequate meals, regardless of race, religion, sex, age or ability to pay.
Our mission is to help the disabled, aged and chronically or temporarily ill by providing nourishing meals delivered by a friendly, well-trained volunteer at a nominal cost. Our objective is to provide daily, caring contact and nutritious meals to our clients so they remain self-sufficient and in their home environment as long as possible.
Our meals are prepared as a service to the communities of La Habra and La Habra Heights by qualified personnel at a local restaurant. Meals are delivered by volunteers between 11am and 12:30 pm, Monday through Friday, except on the following Holidays: Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day, New Year's Day,
Each delivery consists of a hot meal for lunch and a cold meal (sandwich or salad) for dinner plus a single serving of milk and juice. The menus are varied, portions are controlled and meals are planned to provide two-thirds of recommended nutritional needs. Meals are provided regardless of ability to pay and clients unable to afford the cost may qualify for a full or partial meal subsidy.
